48GX VS 50g VECTOR TREATMENT - Hal Bitton in Boise - 08-15-2007 Hi folks. Re: 48GX VS 50g VECTOR TREATMENT - James M. Prange (Michigan) - 08-15-2007 It could be that the 49 series CAS causes some differences in the ways that vectors or complex numbers are treated. Maybe experiment with different CAS modes. Regarding whether \->V2 builds a vector or a complex number, that's determined by flag -19; clear for vectors, and set for complex numbers. For \->V2 to treat the arguments as polar coordinates, the calculator has to be in a polar mode (either CYLIN or SPHERE), that is, flag -16 must be set.
Regards, Re: 48GX VS 50g VECTOR TREATMENT - Hal Bitton in Boise - 08-18-2007 Thanks very much, James... |
